Sean Wheeler - For the past 6 years, I have been the lead documentarian for PowerShell. I ensure that users have the content they need. I also support and encourage the PowerShell Community to add value via open-source contributions to the documentation. In my 24 years at Microsoft, I have taught many workshops on scripting, debugging, and advanced troubleshooting. Using my scripting expertise, I created tools to help customers collect and analyze data used to support and optimize their environments.
